Sharp \(L^p\)-\(L^q\) estimates for generalized \(k\)-plane transforms (Q2642054)

The object of study in this paper is the family of operators which integrate a function \(f\) over all submanifolds given by polynomials in some appropriate coordinate system. The purpose is to establish the \(L^p\) mapping properties of this family. The main theorems of this paper establish the sharp \(L^p\)-\(L^q\) boundedness of this family of operators and related generalizations. A special section establishes the necessity of various conditions of the main theorems.
